Who knows their side skirts???

Ok folks, I have searched to no end on this topic and I'm wondering if someone can be of assistance. I wasn't sure where to post this question exactly, so I figured it can be general. I have an 04 civic coupe (lx) and I'm trying to find out if RSX side skirts will fit on my car. I know the wheelbase is different by like 2 5/8", but I can't find the exact length of the skirts. If not, does anyone know where I can get ones that look like these, or ones that look like the canadian Acura EL skirts? To me the style is very similar and is what I am looking for. Any help is greatly appreciated. To remove this ad, register today for free or log in if already registered!

Re: Who knows their side skirts???

If the wheel base were different, along with the shape of the body, why would you even assume this would work?

Wheel base is off by like two inches, doesn't necessarily mean length well to well couldn't be close enough to work right?

Re: Who knows their side skirts???

Does anyone own an RSX?? Maybe wouldn't mind taking a measurement for me well to well?

Re: Who knows their side skirts???

I'm gogin to have to go with a no with out modifying them. If the wheel base is that far off your going to run into some issues.

Re: Who knows their side skirts???

I figured as much, but I am looking for a factual answer, but looks like I'm gonna have to bring a tape measure with me everywhere till I see another RSX and run up and take a measurement. That should be pretty funny if the dude is in the car.

Re: Who knows their side skirts???

The body style is different and they likely have different mounting locations.

Re: Who knows their side skirts???

The answer is no! I measured and although the wheelbase is different by about 2.5", the well to well measurement is about 5" different. Just incase anyone ever asks such a dumb question!
